Hobbies & Crafts - October 2007

I'm looking for the souvenir machines which press or elongate a penny. I'm familiar with the locations on PennyCollector.com, but I was wondering if there were any locations out there which have been missed.

I'm making hanging wall letters for some of the children in the family for Christmas. I'd like to attach ribbons to hang them by, but I'm not sure how to go about doing that. Suggestions, please?

This year for Halloween, and for a big anime convention going on in my state, I want to cosplay as Nekozawa-senpai from Ouran High School Host Club. Trouble is, I need to find all the pieces.

Does anyone know where I can find a site I can go on to buy a Nekozawa cape/costume and Bereznoff puppet? Or maybe a site I could use to make one step by step? Or even if anyone out there could send me good pictures of his outfit?

Thanks so much!

Hey, for Halloween, I'm going to have a gun arm. Essentially it's a PVC pipe fitted over my forearm with external aestetics to make it look like a bazooka/gattling style gun. I want the barrel to spin at the end of it where the 'muzzle' would be. I had the idea that I could take an old flight simulators stick, put it in the base whee my hand is and hook it up to a motor and activate the spin by pressing the trigger. I used an old hobby motor in middle school to spin a model black hole. I need help picking a motor that can handle the load of what I think would be a PVC barrel and explain how to or point me to a site that could instruct me on how to hook up the wiring. Thanks peeps.

I know this girl who knew how to make something out of origami, but I don't know what's its called. all i know is that you need many small sheets of paper, folded into the same shape and them you connect them. and the cool part is that you can move the points andthere will be a hole in the middle, and then you can move the points back and there won't be a hole. it kinda looks like a ninja star, but with way more points and it's movable.

if anyone knoes what this is called, or can give me a link with directions on how to make this, it will be appreciated. thanks

When you screen print shirts, what techniques do you use for complicated designs when a stencil is just not viable? I have some more intricate designs I need to do and a stencil is just not efficient enough in any way.

This year, my husband and I have decided to cut back a great deal on how much we spend during the holidays. I would like to MAKE gifts this year. I can sew and quilt, but keep in mind that often sewing gifts cost more in supplies than buying them from Walmart! And, I have an EXTENSIVE list of people to shop for:

8 adult women
10 adult men
2 babies
3 little girls
6 little boys

I'd love to hear ideas!!! I'm looking for things that can be made for not too much money, and not TERRIBLY a lot of time, either.

I mean, more complex than a regular box with a top. Are there any models out there with a hinged top? There is one but I can't find any pictures or instructions for it.

It is currently called "Craft is Art"...I am the one in charge of organizing but I am not fond of the name because it doesn't fit the purpose of the club. This club makes artwork and craft for charity: donate hats for charity, make teddy bears with orphanage or sick kids, etc...Any suggestions? Thank you in advance.
